Descriptions

A organothiophosphorus cholinesterase inhibitor that is used as an anthelmintic, insecticide, and as a nematocide. Source: National Library of Medicine, MeSH 2006

Coumaphos is a tan, crystalline solid insecticide and organophosphate cholinesterase inhibitor. Coumaphos is used to treat insects on livestock including cattle grubs, screw-worms, lice, scabies, flies, and ticks. It also can be used against ectoparasites that live on sheep, goats, horses, pigs, and poultry. It is highly toxic if inhaled or ingested and is moderately toxic if absorbed through the skin. Symptoms of poisoning in humans are usually due to the inhibition of cholinesterase and include diarrhea, fever, toxic paralysis, fluid retention of the lungs, and high blood pressure. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) had determined that coumaphos is not teratogenic. There is no evidence that it is mutagenic or carcinogenic. Coumaphos is extremely poisonous to birds and aquatic invertebrates, and moderately poisonous to fish. It is a moderate threat to honey bees.[http://pmep.cce.cornell.edu/profiles/extoxnet/carbaryl-dicrotophos/coumaphos-ext.html] Source: Regenstrief LOINC
